Periodic inspection for the general condition of structural and
mechanical components is imperative for safe and efficient

Periodically inspect all moving parts, framework, and contact areas
for signs of wear, fatigue, or loosening. Tighten, adjust, or replace
parts as necessary to prevent failure and maintain proper function.
Periodically lubricate vertical track rollers, casters, wheels, saddle
shafts, and cable pulleys and/or shafts.
